CARE ‘AND CULTURE OF GLADIOLI 
Select a sunny location away from the roots of shrubs and trees; plant 
4 to 6 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart in a well worked trench in stag- 
gered rows. Be sure to keep well watered at all times, also keep the soil 
loose, 
Although our Gladioli are guaranteed to be free from thrips, these 
insects can be easily transmitted from elsewhere. It is thereby advisable 
to watch for them when plants are about 3 inches tall and if found, spray 
_ weekly with the following solution: 
One rounded tablespoonful of Paris green 
Two pounds of brown sugar 
Three gallons of water.
